Xynthia Zimmer felt miserable after seeing her own mother desperately trying to frame Harvey York.She knew full well that Lilian Yates’s testimony was the most important out of the three.Harvey’s suspicion could only be cleared if Lilian would retract what she said earlier that morning.Mandy Zimmer frowned. She also believed that Harvey would not do something like this.But she also knew how her mother behaved. It would do no good to try and convince her at this moment.Judging from Lilian’s attitude, Harvey would have no chance to clear his name if she were to go all out and become his “corrupt witness”.She would carry the memory of Harvey stabbing her in the stomach back in Hong Kong for the rest of her life…Her desire to become the mother-in-law of a top-rated family also pushed her to do this.Right as Mandy was trying to figure out a way to convince her mother, a few Rolls Royce Phantoms suddenly appeared before parking in front of the police station.A handsome man
“What are you saying, Young Master?!”“That’s none of your business.”Lilian Yates immediately interrupted Mandy Zimmer from talking.“That b*stard, Harvey York, is just born violent! Only he can do something heinous like this!“He totally deserves it!“He’s the one who killed all those people!“He’s the one who has to pay!”“Enough, Mother! Shut up already!”Mandy could not help but scold her mother before she raised her head to look at Joseph Bauer.“This has nothing to do with you, Young Master.“I also don’t want to argue about who’s in the wrong.“Just please stop getting yourself involved!”Joseph pulled out a long, thin cigar and held it in his mouth with a faint smile.“What are you saying, Mandy?“Jordan Bowie’s my subordinate no matter what! I should be taking some responsibility if something like this were to happen.“I’ve been pondering the situation when I was coming here. I wanted to make due.“The Bowie family’s history now!“But, the living ones need to
“No wonder you’re one of Flutwell’s most influential men at such a young age!“I’ll be relieved if Mandy Zimmer gets to be with you!”Lilian Yates did not fancy Joseph Bauer’s fake attitude, but she was still filled with joy.If Joseph were a man who liked guises, Lilian would be able to live her life full of luxuries if Mandy were to marry him!Lilian looked at Mandy with a bitter look on her face without a second thought.“Oh, Mandy!“You need to cherish the man in front of you!“You won’t get another chance if you don’t!”Mandy frowned. She could not understand what Joseph was trying to do.Joseph’s words made no sense at all. It was as if she was just dreaming.Joseph showed a faint smile after hearing Lilian’s compliment.“You’re too kind, Auntie Lilian!“This is no trouble at all.“As long as Mandy can be happy and leave her past behind, this will all be worth it for me…”Afterward, Joseph stared at Mandy with longing eyes.“If you say the word, your ex-husband wil
While it was utter chaos on the outside, Harvey York was taking a nap inside the interrogation room.Nobody asked him a single word ever since he was brought inside.Flutwell Police Station seemed to be focused on crime scene evidence and witnesses after being guided by some experts. Because of this, Harvey was completely ignored by them.It was unknown whether this was a psychological tactic or they were just trying to gather more evidence so that Harvey would have no chance to refute his crimes.In any case, Harvey had been left alone for quite a while already.Harvey could not be bothered anyway. He had been taking a nap before he started deducing the incident.Clearly, someone was behind Ezra Bauer, Dylan Bowie, and Jordan Bowie’s deaths.The people who could control such events in Flutwell were relatively rare.The only confusing thing was that it would be hard to use the opportunity to end Harvey’s life even though he was the biggest suspect in the incident.Judging from
Vivian Hall showed a righteous look when she fiercely exclaimed, “Tell us everything!“Why did you kill them?!“How did you kill them?!“What sort of people did you kill?!“Speak! I want all the details!“The law will bring you justice!”Harvey York curiously glanced at Vivian.“You have no proof of me killing anyone now, do you?“Would you believe me if I said that I didn’t kill anyone?”The male inspector froze before he coldly chuckled.“The footage clearly showed you at the crime scene! You also have a motive to do such a thing!“What’s the point of denying it now?!”Harvey shrugged.“These are just preconceived notions.“Let’s not say that the person in the footage wasn’t me.“Even if it was, me being there doesn’t prove anything.“Perhaps I was just taking a stroll and enjoying the scenery.“Besides, Jordan Bowie went against so many people in Flutwell. It’s only normal for people to want him dead in the first place.”“Enough!“Stop trying to deny it!The male
Harvey York calmly glanced at Vivian Hall.“You have no right to be my security blanket.“You don’t have the power, nor do you have the status for it.”“Heh heh heh… Am I not good enough to be your security blanket?“You talk like you outsiders are actually powerful in Flutwell!”Vivian was chuckling out of rage before she gritted her teeth.“Make the call then! I do want to see what kind of security you have!‘A goddamn live-in son-in-law trying to show off in front of me like some hotshot! What a joke!’Harvey merely smiled and thought of someone before he dialed a number.Beep beep beep…The call got through, but no sound came from the other side. Harvey was not bothered at all. He lightly tapped the screen thrice and patiently waited.An exhilarated yet nervous tone could be heard from the other side.“CEO York, is that you?”“It’s been a while. I can’t believe you still remember my signal even now, Ansel Torres.”“You’re joking, CEO York!” exclaimed the person on the
“It’s important to be truthful, kid,” said the male inspector.“At least do some homework before you try to fool people like us.“You don’t even know Director Torres’ number, yet here you are pretending that you called him?“Do you even know who he is?“He’s a living legend of the country’s military force, the Chief Instructor’s personal bodyguard while he was still in the Sword Camp!“The Chief Instructor himself trained him!“Director Torres killed a God of War from the Island Nations on his own at the Euro-American battlefield!“Because of his accomplishments, he became the director of Flutwell Police Station at such a young age!“He’s a genuine character in Flutwell’s upper social circle!“Do you think you’d know the phone number of someone like that?!“You think you can just order him around?!“Who do you think you are? The Chief Instructor himself?!”Harvey showed a faint smile after hearing the barrage of insults.“What if I told you that I am him?”“Enough! Can yo
Ansel Torres’s expression worsened when he strutted forward.Vivian Hall and her partner’s hearts skipped a beat before they approached Ansel.“Director Torres!“What brings you here?”Vivian felt her heart racing.‘There’s no way that this is happening, right?’“Did you arrest a man named Harvey York?” exclaimed Ansel coldly, without wasting a single second.“Where is he?“I need to see him right now!”Cold sweats were dripping down Vivian and her partner’s heads while their eyes were twitching.‘It’s real!‘It’s all real!‘Harvey did call Director Torres just now!‘He got all the way here in just ten minutes!‘But…’***“Why didn’t you call me the moment you arrived here, CEO York?“If the brothers from Sword Camp know that you were locked up here, they’ll raze my entire house to the ground.”Ansel showed up in the interrogation room five minutes after reading the case documents.He respectfully stood beside Harvey while showing a bitter smile. He would not even da
"That's her, Big bro! According to my spy, he said Juliana is no longer hiding it and cheats openly! I didn't want to believe it, but from the looks of it, she's been cheating all this time!" Alexei said to Harvey. He was so upset that he almost cried.Harvey frowned. "That's all you know? What else do you have?"Alexei quickly took out his phone. "My spy has just sent me all the information. Juliana went to Lost City for further studies, and she studied well. Originally, according to the promise made, she should already be back about half a month ago so we could get married. However, she got to know this man called Hawk John at her graduation party. The two became fast friends. She even announced that they're best friends forever!"I thought they were just ordinary friends, but from the looks of it… That isn't it at all! Forget hiding it, Juliana's directly taking him back! I hate this!" Alexei slammed his chest, as if he were in a lot of pain.Harvey was speechless. "Seriou
Harvey's eyes started to twitch as he immediately gave Alexei a look. It was a call for help.Alexei shrugged. There was nothing he could do. However, it was exactly at this time that his phone suddenly started to vibrate. He gave it a weird look and picked it up. Then, he was stunned… He was practically frozen. No longer caring about anything, Alexei immediately ran over to Harvey and hugged his legs tightly. "Bro! Big bro! You have to help me! You must!"Alexei instantly started crying.Harvey promptly bent down and held Alexei's shoulder. As if he had found a way out, he said solemnly, "Don't worry, Alexei. I've always treated you like my own little brother. Your problem is also my problem. Even if the world is collapsing, I will protect you. So, stop worrying!"Alexei was so touched that he couldn't stop himself from weeping. "You're treating me so well, Big bro, even after I sold you out to my Senior…"Harvey's eyes twitched again. "We're family! What can I say? Let's
Harvey's eyes instinctively twitched. "It belongs to me, so why can't I stay here?"Vaida said worriedly, "Now that Grand City is so chaotic and the Sacred Lands are on the verge of getting into a fight, it's really dangerous if you stay outside. Both my father and I are worried about you. So… Shouldn't you move back?"Harvey led Vaida into the living room and said with a smile, "Don't overthink things, Vaida. It's exactly because things are getting unruly that I should stay in Dragon Gate Training Hall to be a stabilizing presence as their scion, right? Not to mention, I've bothered all of you too much all this time. I have too much going on. If I stay there, it will only bother the mayor, Mr. Wenzel, and Mr. Geoffrey. So, it's better if I stay at my own place."However, Harvey paused when he reached this part of the conversation. "Of course, if there's a need, all you need to do is to give me a call and I'll be there."Vaida nodded. "Harvey, other than the reason you've given us
Mandy was a little startled, then looked at Harvey with a strange look. "You're in such a rush to get rid of me? Don't tell me you really want to be the mayor's son-in-law? I've been here less than a day, and there are already plenty of people warning me about you becoming one."Harvey rolled his eyes. "Don't listen to their nonsense. If I really wanted to be his son-in-law, I wouldn't have gone to save you.""Then why are you in such a rush to send me away?"Harvey sighed. "There are really some things that are beyond my abilities. Let's use what happened this time with Clarion as an example. It's true that I let him take the glory, but after doing that, Dan now considers me an enemy and a thorn in his side. "As a member of the Top Ten Families, you have some understanding of him, don't you? Since he can't deal with me effectively, he'll definitely start with you. The reason I'm asking you to leave is for your own safety."Mandy clicked her tongue. "If Dan really wants to do
Emery slowly flipped and opened the Chapter of Ascension. The Chapter itself was old, written with small letters. Accompanied the original texts were notes and some insights.Emery only believed a portion of the rumors regarding the Chapter of Ascension. After reading through the notes and personal reflections, he could ascertain that the Chapter of Ascension was genuine.What was written inside the Chapter of Ascension was indeed capable of completely changing a martial artist's way of thinking.As he read through it, Emery was already subconsciously trying to test and start training by following what was recorded within the Chapter of Ascension. He had just started to let the energy inside of him flow, but had already noticed that his power, that reached a bottleneck for some time, started to have a breakthrough.In just an instant, Emery could already feel somewhat stronger. It was only a small amount, but it was enough to excite him. It meant that the Chapter of Ascension w
The Wright residence, Wolsing.When Janus got out of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, it was around midnight. He looked around carefully before quickly entering a courtyard within the residence, holding a wooden box.He walked through the corridors with full familiarity and entered a study.Emery, the Number One Young Master of Wolsing, was quietly holding a piece of gemstone, brushing it against his thumb.Janus didn't run in. Instead, he waited until Emery was done looking at the gemstone before entering. "Good evening, sir."Emery raised his head and glanced at Janus. "So? Did you get it?"Janus smiled. "Is there anything in this world you want that we can't get for you?"He carefully put the small box on the coffee table and smiled."While Harvey and that idiot Hale are all quite good," he said, "they're all pawns playing to your tune. This time, with Daichi working for us and Sky Plane suffering such a huge loss, we finally have it in our hands. If those monsters from Sky Plane kne
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
